§ Mr. MolsonThe Advisory Council for Scientific and Industrial Research has considered the Committee's Report and agreed that a central research organisation is needed. Representative industrial bodies have been consulted and are now making a more detailed survey of the information available in industry and the resources in industry for further research.
